CASHEW NUT SHELL OIL
Introduction
Abimex Group’s crude coconut oil is extracted using traditional hot-pressing technology, offering an unrefined, golden-yellow oil with a mild, natural coconut aroma. This is the raw form of coconut oil, directly pressed from copra without chemical refining, bleaching, or deodorizing. While not suitable for direct food consumption, it is widely used as an essential industrial raw material in producing refined oils, cosmetics, soaps, candles, and biodiesel. With consistent quality and export-grade packaging, our product meets the demands of global manufacturers looking for a reliable supply from Vietnam’s leading coconut exporters
What Makes Crude Coconut Oil Special in 2025?
Even in its hot-pressed form, premium crude coconut oil remains exceptional:
- Retains 60–65% medium-chain fatty acids (mainly lauric acid) – the highest level found in any natural oil
- Naturally zero trans fat, non-GMO, cholesterol-free
- Higher natural antioxidant content than many cold-pressed oils due to the gentle heat activation of tocopherols
- Excellent oxidative stability with a smoke point of approximately 177°C
What Makes Crude Coconut Oil Special in 2025?
Crude coconut oil remains the first choice for industrial applications because of its naturally high lauric acid content – 60–65%, unmatched by any other vegetable oil.
- Zero trans fat: A cleaner base oil for further processing.
- Non-GMO origin: Sourced from traditionally cultivated coconuts in Vietnam.
- Naturally stable: Suitable for long-term storage, without additives.
It is the ideal intermediate product for refining into high-quality cooking oil, cosmetics, or personal care ingredients.
